Abstract : Varied facets of health and disease are networked in molecular biologic and physiologic mechanisms which are explored and understood only partly. The later task is formidable challenge for interdisciplinary biomedical research, particularly in respect to cancer. The mystical/divine coding for individual life span may be scientifically decoded amid biological networks. Trade-offs between cancer and other infirmities provide for reorganizing holistic medical thought with better objectivity. Bits of cumulated, traditional, and reductionist knowledge needs holistic interpretation to meet such goal. How medical strategies may selectively negotiate the networks to fetch benefit without becoming counter-productive, is major question. Available information on biological basis of trade-offs between cancer and ageing is briefly discussed. That has crucial implications to concept and design of preventive and remedial interventions, particularly, drugs.

Keywords : Aging and cancer; cancer-trade-offs; clholesterol and cancer; age related NADH oxidase.
